I have not taken the E92 around the track, so I obviously cannot comment on its performance there.. But from driving it around town, I liked the E46 and E36 better..

This is what I have been saying since the beginning..

Also, comparing the stats, BMW could of done better without compromising fuel consumption especially in these times.. What a bad move for BMW, which is why it is IMO FAIL..

They should be striving for more efficient engines and cars, rather than going along similar path to that of American cars.
